In all cases we will refer to $H$ as being of the form
$$
H = -\sum_j\Delta_jn_j \ + \ \sum_j\Omega_j\sigma^x_j \ + \ H_{i}
$$
where $H_i$ is the interaction term in the Hamiltonian.
Values of $\Omega_j$ and $\Delta_j$ respectively represent the amplitude and the detuning of the driving field applied to the qubit $j$. Avoiding technical details we will refer to eigenstates of $H$ (and in particular to the ground state) as equilibrium states.
Although the QPU currently only supports a Rydberg interaction, EMU-MPS supports both the Rydberg interaction term and the XY interaction.
The Rydberg interaction reads
$$
H_{rr} = \sum_{i>j} U_{ij} n_{i}n_{j}
$$
where
$$
U_{ij} = \frac{C_{6}}{r_{ij}^{6}},
$$
and the XY interaction reads
$$
H_{xy} = \sum_{i>j} U_{ij} (\sigma^+{i}\sigma^-{j} + h.c.)
$$
where
$$
U_{ij} = \frac{C_{3}(1-3 \cos^2(\theta_{ij}))}{r_{ij}^{3}},
$$
In these formulas, $r_{ij}$ represents the distance between qubits $i$ and $j$, and $\theta_{ij}$ represents a configurable angle (see here).
Currently, Pasqal quantum devices only support Rydberg interactions, and different devices have different $C_6$ coefficients and support for different maximum driving amplitudes $\Omega$.
Intuitively, under stronger interactions (rydberg-rydberg and laser-rydberg),
bond dimension will grow more quickly (see here), thus affecting performance of our tensor network based emulator.
